Ginger GM is a magician. Everything, he touches turns to dutch: Scicilian, italian, french, , scotch are dutch that ignore themselves. Even the grob could become dutch through this wizard. Anyway great game and great victory! Don't know if it was against a computer. It's hard to tell. Sometimes cheater don't use computer for all their moves. But maybe this guy was just talented.
Actually it is surprisingly "easy" to get into certain kind of pawn structures if you have an opening repertoire, which aims to achieve certain plans and structures. For example with black if you opponent plays 1.c4 english opening you can aim to achieve a reversed pawn structure of GPA by playing 1...e5 2...f5 etc. Of course you have to know when those structures are possible to achieve/good. But in any case you can create your opening repertoire from a pawn structure perspective for example GPA, Dutch, Vienna, English (1...e5) etc. Personally been doing this lately and such a repertoire saves a lot time as you will get to structures you are familiar with.
I am actually impressed how well Simon calculated those complicated tactical lines. Going throught the game with a computer and most of Simon's moves are in range of 1-3 best moves even in those sharp lines.
You're a very good tactical player, Simon, and I really like the way you explain the tactical sequences, repeating them for the benefit of us poor mortals.
thank you for the content, i like the longer chess games and i think that useually i am into longer videos because it improve my chess learning. i really enjoy your chess work. thank you.
@gingergm I love the long play games! Please keep them up. One idea I've had is that users submit positions from their own games (not tactics puzzles) and we get to see how you would approach that position. It would è great!

Welcome home friend! Thanks for the upload! You said you wanted a few ideas for videos, I'd love to see some king gambit games from the white side. I transpose to it when using Bird's opening and my opponent plays 1...e5 (From's gambit?) At any rate, glad to see you around!
At 15:43 that was interesting to sac the exchange maybe Ng5 Ne3 Qe3 Nc2 queen somewhere like g3 and if Na1 Nxe4, the Na1 may not make it to survival and Nd6 is coming ^^
Waited for a long time! Glad you're back, and great job at Gibraltar too! One idea for videos would be an educational series on strategy/planning in chess.

Great game! Note: 24... Nd3 was a blunder! 25. BxQ NxQ 26.BxN winning a piece. It is funny how you spent a lot of seconds analyzing Nd3 and never realized that you would win a piece :D I saw on the spot, of course, I just saw that and no any other of the millions of threads that this game had! Thank you!
Simon I do like your gentlemanly approach, but... You're a GM, with a reputation for playing tactical chess. When OTB did you get steamrollered in the middle game by an untitled player? I looked at the game from Be4 onwards with Stockfish. As you say, pretty much perfect chess (occasionally the second best move).
I only follow the longer games.. I don't play bullet or blitz, so I'm biased, but I would love to see more longer games, they are very instructive and you are a heck of a teacher! 👏👏👏 Nicely done. 👍👊
I agree. I learn much more from Simon's longer games because he has time to explain the plans in more detail and I can follow his tactical sequences much more easily than in his blitz games.
Thanks for the video. I'd like to see you back to streaming titled tuesdays (and there's one tonight ;-) - that was what got me into watching a lot of chess online. It's fantastic to watch someone going all out attack against the other yawn boring safety first positional players. Doesn't matter if it sometimes ends up going badly at the end - it's the utmost in chess entertainment, real edge of the seat stuff.
Wow, that's how I win most of my games: think I have a good position, play moves automatically with minimal calculation, then my opponent plays moves I call weird because I didn't consider them, then blunder some tactic, position is completely lost, I become discouraged and indifferent, play on,then my opponent blinders back, then I win.
@GingerGM can you explain why you choose to save the dark bishop and not save the rook?? is that something you simply missed or was that the plan? Or did you just wont to keep the pair together?
ALERT: Checking with engine for moves leading up to the time scramble, all moves were top 2 recommended. Then during time scramble, he basically regressed to his rating ability and lost the game thereafter.
Maybe Capablanca was right After all - saying the Sicilian is 'full of holes'... I seriously consider going back to 1...e5 again - the "children" move, which is So solid... taking away both f4 and d4 from White.
Dear GingerGM, Simon, I love these long play videos, and they have improved my chess! Thanks for that. I also bought your Jobava-London DVD from Ginger Shop and some Chessable stuff (Dutch & Black Lion) and here is my invaluable tipp for you, to make you a better streamer, just like you made me a better chess player: stop bumping or even slightly dropping your hand or fist on the talbe next to your mic. This constant annoying noise can ruin your best video.
Thanks for sharing, I've been in the 1900s in long play for ever due to cheaters. When will we see a definitive work on the anti-Sicilians from the black side?
This guy was a bit suspicious I have to admit as well. I am a bit paranoid too, because it seems, that even the super low rated players play some pretty good chess often and don't miss mates and mating nets often times. That just doesn't make any sense at all. Particularly if the player's all other ratings are very low as well; tactics, rapid, daily etc.
He started messing up when time got short. But then again nobody can resist a move like bxg2 if they see it on a computer or naturally. Still very suspicious play combined with the disabling chat shenanigans.
Idea for a fun tube: Give honest but brutal comments on your opponent's mistakes. + I agree: a re-deathmatch against Fakegold. But this time with proper insults.
When Capablanca gave a simultaneuous exhihibiton in 1925, Botvinnik played and won against Capablanca OTB. Botvinnik was 14 years old. If that happened today in online chess, would Botvinnik be branded a cheat? Come on, we should get over our egoistic expectations that the stronger player should always win otherwise they will brand their opponents as cheats. Sorry guys, many prodigies pulled off wins over much stronger players. Magnus Carlsen defeated Karpov when he was 13 years old. If it happened in online chess, he would most probably have been branded a cheat. That is our mindset today. We can't accept being outplayed by younger lower rated players. Do we know how many strong players were decimated by Capablanca and Bobby Fischer, when they were teenagers? I don't like online chess for this reason.... We should accept defeats gracefully. Not an accusation against Ginger GM but just saying...... Many strong players complain if they lost online. Just accuse and get away with it.....
Another episode of Simon vs Stockfish at chess.com Seems as if there is noone 2000 Elo rated not cheating which is very unfortunate because our 2500+ rated GM has to play against them because he is 500 Elo underrated, well, because he always plays against cheats... What a pity...
I'm not convinced he was a cheat, he was just 0,47 ahead on the 24th move, even his Nxe4 "brilliancy" didn't give him an edge at all despite Simon's ooh aahs (he's just not very good at tactics, see his stats). Simon made a patzer blunder by checking the king on c8, and deserved to lose the game at that point. Simon's 2000 rating still puts him in the 99,9% percentile, better than his bullet, so he's not actually underrated. Sorry to go Sherlock on you but it's just too simple and childish to call people cheats when you're not playing well.
As others already mentioned, the moves of Simon's opponent after the opening were all Stockfishs pick #1 or #2 until he got in time trouble. Simon has an official FIDE rating of about 2500 so he is clearly underrated at chess.com.
The game was equal until move 33 when SImon made a huge blunder. Simon was never ahead so your talk of time trouble is wrong. Dinesh could have won in 20 moves had been using the engine.
Now that i'm getting into the grand prix attack, ginger boy comes up with a "new" idea for it and makes an 40+min video about it...christmas came up early. Cheers lads!!! (I only play on lichess...follow me n i follow back @Joffaris)
This guy (like all the others) was cheating his pants off. 2500 ELO vs 1900 ELO give you 97% chance to win: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system He selectively used the computer when he didn't know what to do, or thought he was worse. He ran out of time to feed your moves into the computer at the end.
Ask yourself, what's more likely: That he's a chess prodigy < 0.001% of all chess players, or that he's one of the 90%+ who cheat online. He said his rating was 1900 something, but even with 2200 rating his winning chances only rise to 15%.
Clearly a cheater. No way in hell someone that plays a game that well (especially with the tactics he was coming up with) misses such a simple move like Bd2.
Do you even know how good Indian chess players are? Don't call someone cheater because they are better than you. Who will want to cheat in a chess game online. Come on you can't be that naive to think that someone would cheat in a chess game.
He was cheating until he had a winning position. Then he turned the engine off. If you think people online don't cheat, then you must be living under a rock or something.
Bibhuti Baishya hahaha you must be joking. You just need to count how many of Ginger's long games were clearly against cheaters - at least half a dozen. He is 2500 elo or so. If he loses to a 1900/2000 without making any obvious blunders(such as mouse slip last game), then he is playing against a cheater.
@@baishya775You’re calling someone who’s accusing someone of cheating at online chess “naive” because according to you cheating never happens in chess - oh the irony 😂😂😂
